A8 chip, 8MP camera, 5 stunning colours.

Music Your music. Wherever you go.

iPod touch is the perfect way to carry your music collection in your pocket. With the iTunes Store — the world’s largest music catalogue — you can load up your iPod touch with your favourite songs. And thanks to iCloud, everything you purchase through the iTunes Store is automatically available on all your devices for free. To enhance your music experience even more, Apple Music is available on your iPod touch, right there in the Music app.

A8 chip. Satisfy your need for speed.

iPod touch features an Apple-designed A8 chip built on 64-bit architecture. This desktop-class chip features GPU performance up to 10 times faster than the previous-generation iPod touch — so the graphics in your favourite games are more responsive and look more vivid than ever before — and CPU performance is up to six times faster. And you get the same great battery life, with up to 40 hours of music and eight hours of video playback.1

Metal

Metal Technology

To get the greatest graphics performance out of the A8 chip, we created Metal — a new technology that allows developers to design highly immersive console-style games. Metal is optimised to let the CPU and GPU work together to deliver detailed graphics and complex visual effects. So every imaginary world feels more realistic.

M8 Motion Coprocessor

The M8 motion coprocessor continually measures physical motion from advanced sensors, including a gyroscope and accelerometer. Offloading this work from the A8 chip to the M8 improves power efficiency. The M8 also provides accurate fitness-tracking information, such as steps and distance, straight to the Health app.

Photos You’ve got a great eye.See what you can do with even better cameras.

iPod touch features a new 8-megapixel camera and an improved FaceTime HD camera, so you can take some of the most stunning photos and videos you’ve ever captured. These new cameras come with features like slow motion and burst mode, as well as better noise reduction and improved face detection. And with iCloud Photo Library, you can easily access, edit and share your photos on all your devices.

8MP Camera

Slow down life’s fastest moments. The slow-motion feature lets you shoot HD video at 120 fps in 720p. You can even record and then select the portion you want to slow down.

Burst mode captures 10 photos per second and can be triggered simply by holding down the camera button. As you shoot, your iPod touch analyses every shot in real time. Then it suggests the photos you might like best.

Now you can create remarkable time-lapse videos and iOS does all the work. Just set up your iPod touch, select Time-lapse mode and tap Record. You’ll have an amazing movie, whether you record for 30 minutes or 30 hours.

Pano mode now lets you take higher-resolution panoramic photos at up to 43 megapixels. And dynamic auto exposure adjusts as you shoot to capture your most epic shots with incredible clarity.

FaceTime HD Camera

Burst mode helps you take great self-portraits and group shots by continuously capturing 10 photos per second. iPod touch analyses every shot in real time, comparing sharpness and clarity, and even detecting when someone’s eyes are closed. Then iPod touch suggests individual photos or a sequence of photos that you might like best.

The new sensor enables beautiful HDR photos and video with great dynamic range, automatically giving you better-looking FaceTime calls and selfies.

The FaceTime camera has improved face detection to recognise faces faster and more accurately. It also improves blink detection and smile detection to help you look your best in selfies and group shots.

With exposure control, the FaceTime camera lets you lighten or darken your photos and videos with a simple nudge. The same exposure control is also on the rear-facing camera.

iOS 12 Our most advanced mobile operating system.

iOS brings iPod touch to life in incredibly personal and powerful ways. The interface is beautiful and easy to use. Intelligent suggestions appear right when you need them. New tools help you set the amount of time you spend on your iPod. And advanced technologies protect your privacy and security. Once you’ve experienced iOS, you’ll understand why so many people love using it.

Fully loaded.

iPod touch comes with iOS 12 and a collection of powerful built-in apps. Send unlimited texts with iMessage over Wi-Fi. See your friend’s every expression with a FaceTime video call. Post a photo directly to Facebook or Twitter. Or browse your favourite sites with Safari.

Send free messages over Wi-Fi to anyone on an iPod touch, iPhone, iPad or Mac. And those messages can be made even bolder with bubble effects, full-screen effects, invisible ink and more. Take a photo or video and send it without leaving Messages. Share locations and links. Name your group chats, and mute or leave the conversation whenever you like.

Wherever your music comes from, everything you’ve collected from the iTunes Store and beyond lives in one place. And with an Apple Music membership, your collection sits alongside the ever-growing Apple Music library. It’s like having just about every song ever recorded at your fingertips.

The Photos app makes it simpler to find and rediscover your favourite photos. You can easily add filters to your photos, then use iCloud Photo Sharing to share them with your friends and family. You can even enjoy automatically created Memory Movies made just for you.

Everything is more fun with friends.

Connect through social networking apps that help you keep up with the people you care about. And with Game Center, you can see your friends’ high scores and achievements, and challenge them to one of the thousands of games available on the App Store.

Family Sharing Fun for the whole family.

Now up to six family members can share purchases from iTunes, iBooks and the App Store without sharing accounts. So you can give your favourite people access to all your favourite things. Family Sharing makes it easy for family members to share photo albums, calendars and even their location. You can even create Apple IDs for children under 13 years old so they can participate too. Parents can require children to ask permission before making purchases, as well as limit which websites they can access in Safari.

Wireless Cut loose.

iPod touch includes the latest in wireless technologies. When you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network, you can make FaceTime calls, send messages, post photos and download your favourite games and music. And with new support for 802.11ac, you’ll experience up to three times faster Wi-Fi speeds than with 802.11n. iPod touch also supports Bluetooth 4.1 technology, so you can connect a pair of headphones for listening to your favourite tunes or a game controller for racking up a new high score.

Accessories It goes with everything.

Whether it’s a great pair of headphones, a Bluetooth-controlled racing car or a protective case that doubles as a fashion statement, there’s an accessory that complements iPod touch perfectly.
